Book Imperishable Beauty

Download or read book Imperishable Beauty written by Yvonne J. Markowitz and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""A new, imperishable beauty," was how the artist and architect Henry van de Velde described it. European Art Nouveau jewelry of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries embraced a new aesthetic characterized by sensuous forms, dramatic imagery and vivid symbolism. Many of the designers associated with the movement sought their inspiration not in traditional jewelry, but in the work of the pre-Raphaelites and Impressionists and in the arts of Japan. Rejecting the rigid naturalism typical of European decorative arts, designers such as Ren Lalique and Henry van de Velde, and the artists of the German Jugenstil and Austrian Wiener Sezession movements, created ornaments that expressed the spirit and freedom of the era. These artists and designers adopted a free-flowing line and asymmetrical format that invigorated their work and set it apart, while their use of natural motifs and of the female form imbued their creations with energy, sensuality and dreamy mysticism. But underlying the undeniable exuberance of these works was a fin-de-sicle edginess that endows this period with inexhaustible fascination." "Illustrating nearly eighty ornaments from a single private collection - the finest of its type in America - Imperishable Beauty features all of the major designers and jewelers from this groundbreaking era. Paintings, prints, posters and textiles fill out the presentation, making this book as rich and intoxicating as the aesthetic it portrays."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Art nouveau jewellery

Download or read book Art nouveau jewellery written by Fritz Falk and published by Arnoldsche Verlagsanstalt GmbH. This book was released on 1999 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unique jewelry creations of Art Nouveau, which blurred the boundaries between jewellery and sculpture, the applied and the fine arts, are impressively represented in this book by the work of their major exponents, first and foremost Rene Lalique. As an early exponent of Art Nouveau jewellery making, Rene Lalique was not only the leading Belle Epoch jewellery designer and maker, he was also one of the greatest European jewellers of all time; he united consummate mastery of his craft with the highest aesthetic standards in combining innovative motifs and shapes and rarely-used materials like horn or glass. The greatest French jewelers, among them Fouquet, Gaillard, Vever and Gautrait, were inspired by Lalique to create their own original designs.

Book Twentieth century Jewelry

Download or read book Twentieth century Jewelry written by Lodovica Rizzoli Eleuteri and published by Abbeville Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spectacularly beautiful, this authoritative book presents jewelry designs of this century. With almost two hundred full-color photographs specially commissioned for this book and archival pictures of pieces that have disappeared into private collections, the volume features the finest artworks in precious metals and jewels from collections around the world, including creations by Lalique, Cartier, Boucheron, Bulgari, Tiffany, and David Webb. The fascinating text surveys the glittering world of gems with an illustrated introductory essay investigating the development of jewelry design at the end of the 1800s, and the shift from Victorian and Art Nouveau works to pieces stamped with the personality and vision of a single designer. The next chapter thoroughly examines the successive revolutions in style of the twentieth century. The balance of the book is a cornucopia of photographs portraying pieces from the beginning of the century through the 1960s: the grand era of commissions and patrons. Here you will find the Duchess of Windsor's famous necklace of diamonds and rubies as well as a fabulous pin in the shape of a World War II tank, and a veritable menagerie of diamond-studded elephants, enameled tigers, and jade dragons. This thorough history is a dazzling jewelbox of a book.
